Soo-hyun, while volunteering on a medical mission, saves a young girl's life. In gratitude, the girl's grandfather gives him ten mysterious pills.

The younger Soo-hyun, living happily with his longtime love Yeon-ah, comes across a man collapsed on the street and helps him. The man claims to be Soo-hyun from 30 years in the future. Though skeptical at first, the younger Soo-hyun begins to feel shaken as the man presents undeniable proof.
